Facility
The CDF design room has been designed and equipped with all the relevant hardware and software tools, with the aim of creating an effective communication and data interchange environment among team members.
The CDF facility contains:
- an array of design stations, each dedicated to a specific technical discipline
- data and application servers, providing on-line access to design data and tools
- a multimedia wall containing three large projector screens (One of them been a SMART Board for free hand drawing)
- video-conferencing equipment that enables concurrent engineering to be carried out in a distributed manner
- integrated design model CDF-IDM, which will be replaced in the near future by the Open Concurrent Design Server
